First time gaming build (Will this work)

[iMerkPeasants]

Hey, i am a ex console player going into PC gaming, i was wondering if how fast (FPS wise) this build could play games like, Battlefield Call of Duty, Arma, and other fps games, I was also wondering a few more things, like if this is a legitimate build, or a piece of crap, the last thing I'm wondering is how quiet it is. Answers please

Would be nice if that system actually was that price. It is actually $839.86 without MIR's.

OP, here is a build for nearly the same cost as yours, but with better CPU/GPU.

But yours is also 811$ including rebates.

 

[logainofhades]

No mine is 771 without rebates. I do not have Mail In Rebates turned on. Even before promo/combo deals mine is $792. Not sure where you are getting $811 from.
